These data sets were generated for the purpose of investigating
interactions in regional conflicts. The project has traced events in
several regional conflicts (each listed separately). The files are
organized such that all files ending in /.events/ contain event data as
coded by KEDS. Files ending in /.actors/ are the actor lists for each
region. Files ending in /.verbs/ are the verb patterns which code to a
WEIS category. Files ending in /.options/ and /.class/ are KEDS
preference files (described in the KEDS manual). Each is coded from
Reuters lead sentences with date ranges and number of event given below.
